Dan started with 69 cards
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the initial number of cards
Then
According to "Dan bought 7 new baseball trading cards to add to his collection"
The next day his dog ate half of his collection.
There are now only 38 cards left.
Multiplying both sides by 2
Subtracting 7 from both sides
Hence,
Dan started with 69 cards

Subtract 5 (Cameron) and 2 (Karlee) from 49.
Why: Denise's age is basically the basic number. Karlee would be 2 years older, so subtract 2 from 49. You get 47. Cameron is 5 years older than Denise, so subtract 5. You get 42 and divide that by 3 since there are 3 people.
49 - 7 = 42
42 divide by 3 = 14
Check:
14 + 5 = 19
14 + 2 = 16
14 + 0 = 14
19 + 16 + 14 = 49
19 (Cameron) - 16 (Karlee) = 3 years older
16 (Karlee) - 14 (Denise) = 2 years older
19 (Cameron) - 14 (Denise) = 5 years older

Significant digits are all digits, after the comma, excluding the first if this first is Zero
So the number of significant digits is 3 (1,0,2)
Answer:
3 2/3 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Conversion a mixed number 2 3/
4
to a improper fraction: 2 3/4 = 2 3/
4
= 2 · 4 + 3/
4
= 8 + 3/
4
= 11/
4
To find new numerator:
a) Multiply the whole number 2 by the denominator 4. Whole number 2 equally 2 * 4/
4
= 8/
4
b) Add the answer from previous step 8 to the numerator 3. New numerator is 8 + 3 = 11
c) Write a previous answer (new numerator 11) over the denominator 4.
Two and three quarters is eleven quarters
Divide: 11/
4
: 3/
4
= 11/
4
· 4/
3
= 11 · 4/
4 · 3
= 44/
12
= 4 · 11 /
4 · 3
= 11/
3
Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 3/
4
is 4/
3
) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the next intermediate step , cancel by a common factor of 4 gives 11/
3
.
so you simplify to get 3 2/3
Hey the answer is -0.2. You have to divide 10 by both sides to isolate the variable
